Vedic Wisdom

What happens when one takes shelter of the Lotus Feet of Krishna?

For one who has taken shelter of the lotus feet of the Lord, everything becomes easier. Indeed, even crossing the great ocean of material existence (bhavasagara) will become exactly like crossing the water contained in a calf’s hoofprint (vatsa-padam). For such a devotee, there is no question of remaining in this material world where every step is dangerous.
